After having my garden weeded and planted at my new house, I find that
the garden has a multitude of tiny little any hills, and the tiny
little ants are making their way into my kitchen. I solved the
kitchen problem by putting a small line of Ajax at the window where
they were coming in. But what should I do about the garden? I have
tomatoes and eggplant coming in (hopefully), not to mention all kinds
of flowers.

I know they're sentinent beings. Don't start.

Thanks!


Probably pavement ants or pharoah ants, both generically called "sugar
ants". Either case, not a problem. I share my garden with pharoah ants.

To control these, if out of hand, use boric acid around the house. Check
your pharmacy.
